When I search for "Checkstyle" in the VS Code Marketplace, I see two extensions:
Which one is the correct or recommended extension to use for working with Checkstyle in Java projects? Are either of them officially supported or maintained? |

None of these are officially maintained. I would stick to running checkstyle via maven. |

in development of some other any plugin is fine.
in development of checkstyle , non of plugin will help much as we run over our code most recent SNAPSHOT version of checkstyle. In other words, if you change some Check, you will have to fix all new violations caused by such change.
All non released updates on Checks, are applied to each commit execution, so recommended is to use
mvn clean verifyto avoid unexxpected behavior in CI.but if you do not think it can make a problem for you, use any plugin you like. There might be a lot use cases where it might be useful.
